• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message 60187 - Index class & not defined ?

  The SAP error message "60187 Index class & not defined" typically indicates that there is an issue with the indexing configuration in the SAP system. This error can occur in various contexts, such as when working with database tables or when trying to access certain functionalities that rely on indexing.
  Cause:
  
  Missing Index Class Definition: The index class specified in the operation is not defined in the system. This could happen if the index class was deleted or never created.
  Configuration Issues: There may be a misconfiguration in the database or the application that is trying to access the index.
